It's kind of funny. Because without the Silver, I know I wouldn't have been ready for it.

Turns out playing the Role of a fearless warrior teaches you a few things about valor. Funny how that works, huh?

... I don't want to give it up.

I know we can't tell if we're delusional, but I'm better like this. I think a lot of us are. I'd trade it in a second to keep people safe, but that trade sucks.

So whether we have to or not... we definitely need to kick somebody's ass for this.

Oh, trust me, Operation Platypus was go the moment I deduced the existence of Doctor Fucking Doofenschmurtz and his Conductinator. Nothing but the biggest explosions for him.

And I think there's value in becoming as we are, without the chance of forcing it on others unwillingly. Call it a Resistor. Against Doctor Doofenshmurtz.

Let's find a way to take on the Rose Quartz, together, just to spite the asshole.

...okay you're definitely gonna have to run that phrase by me again. Take on the Rose Quartz?

[She understands everything else, despite herself, but actually knowing someone named Rose Quartz complicates that last one.]

Quartz is a semiconductor? An electrical resistor? That's it, that's the joke. Silver for Conductors, therefore Diamond for hypothetical Insulators and Quartz for Resistors.

Maybe I picked up the 'rose' part from you, maybe because I was a massive egg I'm big into teal and pink now. Context for your wibbling, kplzthx?

Rose Quartz was a rebellion leader in my home universe. She was a Diamond pretending to be a common soldier - hell if I could tell if you meant doing the same or doing a hit.

...Ten bucks on her choosing the name BECAUSE it made her a Resistor.

Christ on a cracker, that's a hell of a thinko I managed. But since the gag was it was multiple meanings of resistance, no wonder that got Conducted to me.

Don't overthink it too much - Quartz are foot soldiers, they're common as dirt. She chose it because Diamonds are the elite, and Rose wanted to disguise herself as common ground for other Gems to rebel behind.
